Of course, Mu Guizhi took a telegram to Anne, and the number of words was limited, so it was impossible to write things so carefully.

But Anne knew the cheap mother-in-law, and could imagine what was going on by speculation.

It is true that Zhang Dagen made a fuss about "human life", and it is also true that the lion of the Ma family opened his mouth, but it is absolutely impossible to say that Mrs. Niu does not even have 200 yuan in her hand.

Anne had already calculated that the harvest in the past two years had not been good, and the annual wages were owed by the brigade.

The Zhang family basically spent all their past savings and Zhang Dahai's allowance.

In the past six months, Zhang Dahai has only sent half of the allowance to his family, although the money is less, it is enough for the daily expenses of the Zhang family, but he can't save so much money.

According to the daily expenses of the Zhang family, Anne estimated that Mrs. Niu should still have two or three hundred yuan in her hand.

This money is enough for Zhang Dagen's bride price.

Mrs. Niu was reluctant to pay for it herself, so she hit Anne with the idea.

Anne knew Mrs. Niu's temperament, and she knew that Mrs. Niu was not like this because she had little money, but because she didn't want to spend the money.

Not to mention two or three hundred yuan, even if Mrs. Niu has two thousand yuan, she is not willing to use it, but tries her best to squeeze her daughter-in-law.

Two hundred yuan is just a month's salary for Anne, and she can take it out.

But she didn't want to take it!

Why?

Yes, the Zhang family is indeed not separated, and according to the old rules, all the income of the family should be handed over to their parents.

But Anne came out with the army, in fact, it was already a disguised separation.

When she left, she took all the rations of their family of six with her, as well as some valuable things.

If there is no accident, they will not return to their hometown for permanent residence.

In addition, Anne already knew that her house was cleaned up by Mrs. Niu and let her three sons live in the second room.

Although Mrs. Niu didn't say it explicitly, everyone knew that she wanted to give up the big house to the second room, and it was estimated that Zhang Jinsuo would use this house as a new house when he married his daughter-in-law in the future.

The house in my hometown is gone, and it is even more impossible for Zhang Dahai and Anne to go back, so this family has actually been divided.

Well, if you haven't gone through the formalities, you won't be separated.

But if the Zhang family is not separated, then the money in Mrs. Niu's hand should also be the common property of the whole family, but in the past ten years, Zhang Dahai's house has never taken advantage of the family!

You can't let the eldest son's family work hard to make money, but the money can't be spent on themselves, and it's all biased towards the youngest brother and sister, right?

There is no reason for this, the production and development of the most taboo big pot rice, and the "big pot rice" in the family should not be.

One of the biggest reasons is that Anne hates parents for robbing the rich and helping the poor among their children.

Do outstanding children deserve to use their hard-earned money to compensate for those who are not outstanding?

It's not fair!

Anne had money, but she just didn't want to give it.

Don't forget, in this life, Anne's character is a shrew.

Although the current Anne is a good military wife who understands righteousness, is conscious, thoughtful and knows how to dedicate, she is still a shrew from the countryside in her bones.

Anne replied directly to Mrs. Niu, just two words - no money!

Anne knew that with the character of Mrs. Niu, she would definitely be furious after reading the letter, and it was very likely that she would run to the barracks to make a fuss.

But Anne is not afraid, if she wants to make trouble, she still wants to have a good fight with her.

Anne really didn't guess wrong, Mrs. Niu listened to Zhang Dagen's letter, and her eyebrows immediately rose, "No?"

Zhang Dagen was anxious, he liked Ma Chunhua, but he hated the Ma family's black heart, looking at their posture, he didn't take Ma Chunhua, his daughter, seriously at all.

To have such an outrageous bride price, it is clear that it is a one-shot deal, the Ma family only wants food and money, so they don't care that their daughter marries into the Zhang family in this situation, and there will be such a life in the future.

Zhang Dagen even blamed Ma Chunhua at first, it can be seen that she cried sadly once, and after listening to her explain the situation, Zhang Dagen's complaint to Ma Chunhua disappeared, replaced by full distress.

Now he just wants to marry Ma Chunhua as soon as possible, so that she can get out of the misery of the Ma family.

Ma Chunhua's stomach couldn't drag on for long, and the Ma family was also pressing.

If it weren't for Old Man Zhang's quick decision to send a hundred catties of grain to the Ma family first, the Ma family would probably have really gone to the commune to complain.

Zhang Dagen waited for his eldest brother to send the money back, but as a result, he waited for a few days with his neck stretched, and he waited for these two words.

His heart suddenly fell to the bottom, and he said in a hurry, "What should I do? Mother, the eldest brother has no money, what should the Ma family do with the bride price? If they really sue me for being a hooligan, then, will I go to jail? Will I be shot?"

The crime of hooliganism in these years is not light, and you can shed your skin without dying.

Mrs. Niu didn't believe that Anne would have no money at all, and she hated to go to the provincial capital immediately to settle accounts with Anne.

But she didn't have time.

Mrs. Niu cares about money, but she cares more about her youngest son, and she must not let her son squat in prison and be shot.

gritted her teeth and scolded Anne for a long time, and Mrs. Niu finally reluctantly took out 200 yuan.

When she handed it to Zhang Dagen, she deliberately said with a sad face: "Alas, it took me to borrow a circle to make up enough 200 yuan, and I have so many debts, how can we pay off our lives in the future." ”

Zhang Dagen never suspected that his mother would lie to him, so he was moved to wipe away his tears, and even patted his chest and assured Mrs. Niu, "Mother, don't worry, I, Chunhua and I will be filial to you in the future." ”

Zhang Dagen was easily coaxed by Mrs. Niu, but Ma Chunhua was very shrewd.

After listening to Zhang Dagen's words, "My mother is still good to me, and I have to make up the bride price if I borrow money", he said without a trace, "Your village is so good, there has been a drought for two years in a row, and the brigade can still send money." Unlike our production team, at the end of the year, there is not a penny of cash to be seen, and all you receive is white slips. ”

Zhang Dagen paused for a moment, "I and our village haven't had any money for two years, and all the money we give is white slips." ”

Ma Chunhua pretended to be envious and said, "Ah, if you don't have any money for two years, can the people in your village still have extra money to lend to our family?"

Zhang Dagen was silent, he was not stupid, he was just used to believing in his mother.

Listening to his fiancée at this time, Zhang Dagen suddenly understood: Yes, the brigade has not paid for two years, and last year there was not even enough food, but this year it was thanks to the blessings of his two sisters-in-law, so that the villagers in the brigade would not be hungry.

But money, really not!

Rural people count on the work of the brigade all year round, and the brigade does not pay for two years, except for his Zhang family, which has a military allowance, other families are estimated to not even be able to get a few yuan.

I don't have much money at home, so how can I lend money to others generously?

And this other person is still a well-known wealthy family in the village!

Is it possible? Definitely impossible, the only explanation is that the family actually has money, but the mother doesn't want to pay, and wants to force the eldest brother and sister-in-law to come out.

Although the eldest brother and sister-in-law earn a salary, they don't need money for anything outside than in their hometown, plus the eldest brother has to send home 13 yuan a month, so there is definitely not much money in his hands.

The sister-in-law said that she had a job, but she was a woman, and she had just joined the work, no matter how capable she was, could she still earn more than her eldest brother?

The sister-in-law replied that there was no money, and Zhang Dagen wrote.

And my mother said that she had no money, and now it seems that she is lying at all.

Mother, why do you want to do this?

Could it be that he has been forced so badly by the Ma family these days, hasn't his mother seen it?

also said that she loves herself the most, hum, she loves money the most.

Zhang Dagen pursed his lips, and began to have a grudge against his mother in his heart.

Mrs. Niu didn't know that her most distressed youngest son had a dislike for her, and she was working non-stop to handle Zhang Dagen's marriage.

She thought that when the marriage was over, she would go to the provincial capital to find An Dani.

If Antani obediently sent her salary back, if she didn't want to-

Hmph, Mrs. Niu will find the leaders of the army and talk to them about this daughter-in-law who is not filial and does not unite the family.

If An Dani loses her job because of this, Mrs. Niu doesn't care, anyway, the money can't reach her hands, and whether An Dani has a job or not is not good for her.

If Andani's job is really lost, Mrs. Niu will be proud: Look, let you be unfilial to the old man, and now you have been beaten back to your original form, you deserve it!

Anne didn't know Mrs. Niu's dirty thoughts, even if she guessed, she didn't care, she had more important things now.

"Xiao, Xiaoan, there's something I want to tell you, you, you have to be mentally prepared-"

The battalion commander said with a somewhat embarrassed expression......
